Chapter 102: The Blame By the time Klein put down the copper whistle, he had already activated his spirit vision. He saw illusory white bones on the ground weakly tossing themselves upward, slowly forming a huge body. If the same scene in the past had resembled a fantasy-version fountain, then this time it was merely an ordinary faucet turned upside down. The corners of Klein’s mouth moved almost imperceptibly. He pretended he had not noticed anything unusual. Only after several seconds did…-

Chapter 101: Backup Plan The cold seawater instantly submerged Klein, soaking through the golden-red dress he wore and making it as heavy as stone, dragging his body sharply downward. At the same time, however, Creeping Hunger had also devoured that pirate, removing the weight of an entire person. Klein did not attempt to float back up. Instead, he continued sinking. Through the waves, he vaguely heard several distant splashes, as if pirates of the Sailor pathway were relentlessly pursuing…

Chapter 100: “Provocation” Tracy saw two bolts of lightning suddenly blaze in “Elaine’s” emerald-like eyes, silver-white and dazzling, completely occupying her field of vision. Her beautifully curved chin abruptly lifted, as if she were about to release an agonized scream. But she stiffened in place and shattered like an illusion. The full-length mirror set inside the room cracked with a snap, rapidly collapsing and scattering all over the floor. Mirror Substitution! Tracy’s…

Chapter 99: Both Immersed and Detached Only one Black Death… Did the other ships stop outside the Rorsted Archipelago’s waters because they feared being discovered and would not have time to escape? That is good news… Klein withdrew his gaze and deliberately bit his lip lightly, showing the unrest in “Elaine’s” heart. Glancing at Elaine’s side profile, Misor lit a torch and swung it repeatedly, signaling the flagship. It did not take long before a small boat came over, picked up him…

Chapter 98: The Silver-Tongued Klein slowly turned his head and glanced at Danitz. The great pirate with a bounty of 5,500 pounds immediately shut his mouth, stiffened his face, and acted as though nothing had happened. After confirming that Elaine had boarded the passenger liner without any accidents, Klein turned back and walked toward the carriage. As though speaking casually, he asked, “You heard the conversation just now clearly, yes?” “No, no. Just a little, a little…” Danitz…

Chapter 97: An Academic Question As Elaine spoke, her eyes tilted slightly upward, as though she had sunk into her memories. “At first, I resold steel and coal shipped from the western coast of the Intersea to Feynapotter, then brought back local specialties such as tobacco, coffee, and cocoa to Intis. That was a coastal route. It was relatively safe, but competition was fierce. To escape my predicament as soon as possible, I saved capital while also working hard to raise my Sequence, hoping to…

Chapter 96: “Hijacking” Bayam, the City of Generosity, inside the Intis Consulate. Elaine sat before the dressing table, looking at her beautiful yet slightly haggard self in the mirror. She remained dazed for several minutes. The time since she had escaped the Black Death had been full of both expectation and torment. She feared that one careless moment would lead to pirates or adventurers discovering her, causing her to be captured by Vice Admiral Ailment Tracy and taken back, completely…

Chapter 95: Books from More Than Three Thousand Years Ago Vice Admiral Iceberg Edwina showed no change in expression because Gehrman Sparrow had said he needed to consider it. She merely nodded calmly. “There is no rush.” She seems to think that, for a transaction of this size, I cannot decide on my own and have to go back to ask the secret organization behind me… Is the problem that I cannot decide? The problem is that I have no money! Klein mocked himself inwardly. Closing Groselle’s…

Chapter 94: Vice Admiral Iceberg’s Collection Room Is she suspecting something? Klein looked straight into Edwina’s eyes without moving away, flickering, or dodging. After learning that Danitz had revealed to Vice Admiral Iceberg that he had once made a sacrifice to Kalvetua shortly before the sea serpent’s death, Klein had already prepared for the corresponding situation. If he were sitting on a sofa rather than standing at the ship’s side, he would certainly have crossed his right leg,…

Chapter 93: The Golden Dream When Klein saw that enormous black-sailed ship, his first reaction was fear and vigilance. He suspected that the half-god King of the Five Seas, Nast, had come for him. But he immediately rejected the idea. Ever since going out to sea, aside from the time he had used the Black Emperor card in the spirit world, he had almost never allowed that Card of Blasphemy to appear in the real world. The few times he had, it had only been when answering a summoning, and it had…
